well....the scale did show 166.5 this morning BUT i'm not going to post it, I'm tired of doing the up/down 1/2 to 1 pound shuffle! Once I get down to my goal 138 I'm allowing myself the shuffle to 142 since I know that is how my body works, so why can't I allow myself some slack now? Ohhhhh just because that is the way it is, I guess. BUT I feel good and am eating healthy today. I didn't feel like cabbage soup even though I do have 1 jar left. And I'm not in the mood to record my food, but will just list it here, this morning I had some fruit juice (100%) Which was refreshing, now I'm doing cottage cheese (had a craving and haven't had it in at least 1-2 years!) with leafy vegies, really like adding scallions and the celery heart to it also and lotsa pepper. Dinner will probably be some very healthy vegie mix of some kind that my son & his gf make. I just have to not overdo the portions and should be good. I resisted temptation last night of mindless nut eating while watch a movie. Nuts can do me in quickly since I cannot control portions on those right now so it is best to avoid them completely. Also resisted stopping for a bottle or 2 of wine to bring home and consume with friends, that is also a big one for me. So lets keep it out of the house at least until the weekend and then take it as it comes. This weekend may be a difficult one for me, since it is the holiday and my kids will be away and my parents are gone (passed away) Christmas eve was always a big one for my family. I haven't been in the mood for it this year but did manage to put the candles (electric) each of the windows which is something my mom always did. And I've sent some Christmas cards but only in response to ones I've gotten. So I may just sleep the whole weekend or go out for a Chinese dinner.
